Is this an anxiety attack?

I have ocd anxiety and depression. Im 15, and every litle thing freaks me out. Sometimes, even when im just in class, i get so nervous and my mind starts spinning and im scared for no reason and sweaty and i just want to run away. Expecialy when the phone rings in class!! its like i feel like its always for me and im in some kind of trouble. But anyways, are these anxiety attacks or just my anxiety being annoying

    Anxiety attacks suck. That sounds like what you are experiencing. When I have them, I get weird heart beats and sometimes my hands go numb and I basically feel like I'm having a heart attack, but I'm not. I feel like I'm going to die at any second. I usually just try to go be alone for a few minutes and just breathe deeply or go outside and get some fresh air. Just deep breaths help me a lot. I don't take any medication. I sometimes get them when people talk too much for too long. Haha. Like my bf's brother could talk for an hour straight without stopping and when he does that, I get very anxious. Like I just want him to shut up and go away.

    It's just your anxiety... wanting to run away is an instinctive reaction to it. (You may have heard of fight or flight) the adrenaline rush you get when you're scared can cause that. I usually have the same thing just before an anxiety attack. They're when you freak out and can't breathe because you're scared or panicking too much...they're also unpleasant and embarrassing. God forbid you ever have to deal with them.

    Yes, my anxiety attacks are the worst. It can be over anything (just had one over temperature of room) my hand starts to have spasms, I can't breathe, and I keep saying things.
